In 1998 The Circus emerged from the misty hills of Sleepy Hollow, New York and exploded upon the Hudson Valley music scene with their stunning self-produced debut release, "A Good Thief Tips His Hat". The quirky quartet then began touring throughout the northeast and rapidly developed a fiercely loyal, all-ages following. Featured recently in Relix Magazine, the New York Times and on the CBS hit show, Joan of Arcadia, the band's charismatic live performances and whimsical blend of folk, rock, hillbilly and pop have simply captivated audiences and critics alike. The music of Slambovia has been described as "Hillbilly-Floyd, folk-pop", "alt-country roots-rock, and "surreal Americana". Gandalf Murphy and The Slambovian Circus of Dreams ...

USA Today named Ellis Paul the "Best Bet for Stardom," partly because of constant radio airplay, plus years of endless touring -- from Alaska to Miami, coffeehouses to Carnegie Hall, the Newport Folk Festival to The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. His songs have also been featured in movies such as the Jim Carey hit, Me, Myself and Irene. According to Performing Songwriter Magazine, "Ellis combines the sensibilities of Bob Dylan, Bill Morrissey and John Gorka and delivers it with a passion that sets him apart in the company of a new breed of Songwriters." "Ellis Paul is now a national folk star...literate, provocative, urbanely romantic." -The Boston Globe.

Rory Block's music represents "some of the most singular and affecting country blues anyone -- man or woman, black or white, old or young -- has cut in years," as Rolling Stone critic Dave Marsh described it. Bonnie Raitt calls her "an inspiration to me since we started out." From Delta-style blues to ragtime guitar to rock, R&B and gospel, this legend's singing combines purity, grit and heart. Her incredible energy gives new life to the more obscure pockets of the blues repertoire, making the songs seem as much her own as do her very own compositions which preserve these traditional blues themes -- leaving in her wake 17 solo albums that have earned 4 WC Handy Awards and a gold record in Europe.

The personnel of this 17-piece orchestra and vocalist are all professional musicians, whose talent and expertise in performing with a big, modern swinging band stems from the background of the individual players. Some of the members are alumni of the "Big Band" era of the 40's, 50's and 60's, coming from the popular New York City scene, as well as the recording industry. Background of others reaches into the music education area of public schools and universities. Add to this the fine vocal work of Maureen Morrissey and it makes a great mix, with everyone benefiting from this artistic diversification. Most of all, what makes this big, swinging band unique is the musician's love of performing as a group, with the great sounds that come from ensemble jazz and swing, as well as beautiful ballads. The sum total of all these ingredients equals toes tapping; fingers snapping; heads swaying; and those happy smiles on the faces of listening audiences as well as the dancers.

Whether appearing on “Late Night With Conan O’Brien,” on radio programs such as “A Prairie Home Companion, in front of 15,000 people at a major music festival, or teaching an intimate gathering of students at a music camp, Guy Davis feels the instinctive desire to give each listener his ‘all’. His ‘all’ is the Blues. The routes and roots of his blues are as diverse as the music form itself. It can be soulful, moaning out a people’s cry, or as playful and bouncy as a hayride. He’s a musician, composer, actor, director, and writer. He’s appeared on television, in film, on the stage, both with and without his famous actor-activist parents Ruby Dee and the late Ossie Davis. But most important, and Guy Davis is a bluesman. For the past decade, he has concentrated on writing and recording. His latest album, “Legacy” was picked as one of the Best CDs of the Year by National Public Radio (NPR). Tickets are: $20 for individuals, and $15 for seniors and youth aged 12-18. Kids under 12 are free.

Leni Stern made a name for herself in jazz circles, but then crossed over into the singer-songwriter realm, garnering consistent praise in the process. Critics have said her music incorporates "intelligent lyrics and beautifully drawn vignettes" (Washington Post) -- "a gifted singer-songwriter with a wide-ranging sensibility and sophisticated guitar and harmonic chops" (The Boston Globe). They also call her a "fleet and lyrical guitarist" (The New Yorker) with "crystalline, jazz-meets-blues guitar lines" (Guitar Player). Leni's new album, Africa, continues to earn her praise for its authenticity and for the way she made the CD: recorded in Africa, with African musicians and at the pace of African life. The music integrates African & Western music forms with such distinction that it may come to be regarded as an "audio documentary" of African musical life.

Marc Ferriera, aka MARCO is fast becoming one of OD's most popular artists. His brilliant takes on '80s and '90s Top 40s favorites, supported by fluid guitarwork, and augmented by just the right amount of electronic effects (so that he plays both rhythm and lead) make for an energetic, entertaining night of Rock & Roll. It's fun to watch Marco build a song, layer by layer, starting with congas, adding rhythm guitar that he sets into a loop, then frosting it with great leads and vocals,... bouncing back and forth between musical stations with a controlled abandon. The guy is a regular whirling dervish!
